A 32-year-old man from Eland Street in Kericho has surrendered to police after allegedly killing his 30-year-old wife during a domestic dispute.
Cyrus Onkeo reportedly confessed to strangling his wife, Fridah Nyaboke, following an argument.
According to police reports, the couple engaged in a heated confrontation that escalated into violence.
Onkeo admitted to choking Nyaboke and then placing her on the bed. He claimed that when he tried to wake her the following morning, he realized she was unresponsive and feared she might be dead.
